The holidays have a way of bringing out the very worst in the type of people who happily profit by preying on others. Phishing scams have been a favorite tool of cybercriminals for years. These 6 scams in particular are wreaking havoc on unsuspecting targets this December.
While the bulk of these threats are intended to target individuals, if one of your employees happens to trigger one of these infections or intrusions from their workstation or any device that is connected to your business’ network, it can be disastrous for your business. A hacker that is hoping to get a hold of personal data would be more than happy to instead help themselves to any and all sensitive data stored on your systems and network.
Talk to your IT provider to ensure that you have the right network security measures in place, and that your firewall, antivirus, and antimalware programs are up to date with all of the latest patches.
